SP can be some badass folks.


Of course once the expansion comes out, all the gear you have now will be worthless.

Had a guy talking about his beta testing of it, say that a pally in the newer gear soloed the 45min Baron run.


Well Im Tier1/tier2  

Only blues are my neck and rings.  I been saving my damage gear so it will help me get those first few level out of the way

I also stockpiled food with good bonuses on it.

Wow is this a neat game.  I got my kids playing it, and after helping then Sunday afternoon I though I'd try  it out last night.

Talk about addicting (I think I PO'ed the wife) I was on there for hours and didn't realize it.

I'm only a 6th level priest - a Zombie undead priest by the name of ARFCOM.  NOthing better than sneaking up on humans - killing them then eathing the corpse in front of the others.

Anybody else travel down to the SW coast of the eastern most continent?  Jeez the dinosaurs there killed me real fast!  Next time I'll learn not to take joy-rides on blimps.


LOL Sounds like a case of caffiene for you.

I play Illidan and I have an Undead Rogue. 28.
I am hoping to get to 60 before the expansion releases.
I doubt I will.

BTW I have some questions on the game I wondering if anyone could answer them.

1) Are there Dragons?  If so where could I go to find them?

2) Once a characher is 'built up' enough can you move him to the other realms (like role-playing) or do you have to stick to world your character was created in?

3) Are there modes of transportation  other than walking or getting joy rides on blimps? (i.e. horses or at least can you make a character run?)

Thanks!  This game is alot like playing D&D when I was a kid, I can see why so many people enjoy it.


12 days ingame to 60 for me

There are dragons, dont go at them with less then 40 people who are 60.  Some are in dungeons, others are world spawns in a few places are rare to see.

You can transfer to other servers but same game, the owrld overall is pretty big.

You can take the bird to fly point to point in zones.,  also get a mount at 40 and can get a faster one at 60, they do cost money.

What's the terminal performanc like ?


I'm a hunter (dwarf also,  one of their racial traits is +5 for guns).

At level 10 you start a quest chain to get a pet (meat shield!)

I don't recall starting with a ranged weapon.  (There are also bows and crossbows along with guns)

Terminal performance,  I can crit for about 2500 when I'm lucky and can get a solid 150DPS.  hehe

I guess I was lame,  my polar bear's name is Whitey.  I thought about naming him Cracka.

Also have a gorilla I wanted to name MrPeepers (from SNL) but WoW wouldn't let me put Mr in there so its just Peepers.

Well I got my warrior up to 60 and he's got some decent gear now and a couple of epics that were passed to him on raids. I started playing the Warlock I created 2 years ago that I reserved the name Sulaco with. Got him to level 12 last night. God I'm a loser

Alien - 60 Rogue (epic'd out raiding character that I'm going to retire)
Decimus - 60 Warrior (my new main)
Gerald - 59 Paladin (been 59 for over a year haha!)
Amador - 38 Hunter
Sulaco - 12 Warlock

All on the Alliance side on Tichondrius.

My Dwarven Hunter, Odingaard - Level 41, and his wolf pet, Beowulf, can be found running around on the Muradin server during the wee hours of the morning on select days of the week.

This is my second MMOG. I started with Dark Age of Camelot, maxed out a character with everything possible over a 4 year period. Sadly, DAOC lost most of its population when WoW came out. With no-one to play with, I dumped my DAOC account and went over to WoW.

My love of MMOGs came from my love of Dungeons & Dragons years ago. Since I am older now (36) and do not have time to engage in a pencil/paper D&D campaign - I have found that MMOGs fill that little hole D&D left me with years ago. I do moderate my playing - which is something that you need to keep an eye on. Its easy to get lost in MMOGs for great lengths of time without eating or sleeping.

In my opinion, WoW is an excellent MMOG with alot of people to play with at any time of the day/night. Its a good way to waste time (especially if you are deployed and your FOB has high-speed connections for your laptop!). I am personally responsible for getting about half my MP unit addicted to WoW - the oldest of which was 48-year-old  Special Forces LTC, so its not just a game for kids or nerds. Its actually fitting for anyone that has an interest in combat/strategy oriented mindplay.

Just play a Dwarven Hunter if you decide to play. You get to use guns! I am the Guildmaster of Knights of the Old Code - so if you decide to play, chat me up and I can set you up with some money and other items that will assist you in leveling your toon. Hope to see you around!

I just got the game and it's taking forever to download all the patches.  Can't wait to sucked into the abyss.

Maybe I'll just buy a level 60 mage and paladin for $2500 and get started right!

Here is a tad of advice:

Before I started my hunter, I took several different characters to level 10 (about a half-day of play) just to see if I liked them. If you are not happy with your character through level 20 - just dump it and start another or start another and try it out. Eventually, you will find something you like. It won't take long to get back where you were level-wise.

Also, if you want money making professions - train in skinning, mining, and fishing right off the bat in one of the captiol cities. Using these professions and selling the goods in the Auction House, I was not only able to train all my specs and have excellent armor/weapons - but was also easily able to gross the 90 Gold needed at level 40 for the mount.

There are some silly ppl that would pay out the rear for high lvl characters.



There's got to be a market for it, but I don't see the point unless it's for PvP.  Building up the character seems like most of the fun.

This game is really addictive.  I sat down to play last night about 8:00PM and the next time I looked at the clock it was 1:30AM.

I figure by the time my Druid is level 30 I'll be divorced and playing WoW from my homeless shelter.

Gotta go, I'm almost at level 10 and I need to sell off some spider parts.
